Critical Introduction to Khomeini Adib-Moghaddam Arshin
As the architect of the Iranian Revolution of 1979, Ayatollah Khomeini remains one of the most inspirational and enigmatic figures of the twentieth century. Twenty years after his death, Khomeini is revered as a spiritual and political figurehead in Iran and in large swathes of the Islamic world, while in the West he is remembered by many as a dictator and as the instigator of Islamist confrontation. The revolution placed Iran at the forefront of Middle East politics and of the Islamic revival.
The book details Khomeini's early years in exile from Iran, the revolution itself, and events that took place thereafter including the hostage crisis and Arshin Adib-Moghaddam brings together both distinguished and emerging scholars in this comprehensive volume, which covers all aspects of Khomeini's life and critically examines Khomeini the politician, the philosopher, and the spiritual leader.
